A new business
networking event for the construction sector is launching in Lincolnshire after
successful networking and business growth organisation the Construction Leaders
Club (CLC) announced it is expanding.
The pilot
session takes place in Lincoln on 15th September and is open to
anyone who works within the construction sector or in a business associated with
the construction industry.
Sponsored
by Lincoln-based The Preparation Group, the trial networking event follows the
success of CLC in Nottingham. Its monthly networking meetings attract
professionals from across Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire. It
also run a series of aligned and well-received business growth programmes for
small business owners and senior decision makers.
Terry
O’Mahony, who founded and runs the organisation, said: “Over the last four
years the Construction Leaders Club has been very successful in building a networking
event for construction industry professionals in the Nottingham, Derby,
Leicester area and we want to take it east and north to Lincolnshire and the
surrounding districts as a proven formula for connecting businesses and their
professional teams.
“As well as
networking opportunities, we offer business growth and development training
programmes for small businesses associated with the construction sector. We
welcome anyone working in the sector or alongside the sector who is interested
in networking or in business growth and development to join us on 15th
September at our trial event in Lincoln.”
Earlier
this year the CLC became what is believed to be the only business growth,
leadership and management development organisation for the construction industry
to be awarded the new Chartered Building Consultancy status.
Construction
Leaders Club has held the accolade of Chartered Building Consultancy status for
the past three years but the CIOB asked holders to re-apply after setting down
new and tighter rules for compliance in a bid to drive up standards within the
sector.
Founded by
business growth expert Terry O’Mahony in Nottingham, CLC was established as a
networking and business growth organisation supporting businesses and
individuals related to, or associated with, the UK construction industry.
As well as monthly networking events, CLC also runs development programmes and
workshops for individuals including a Mastermind Programme, aimed at business
owners and senior decision makers, and a Rising Stars Programme for high
potential individuals who want to step-up to the next level. New courses on
each programme are expected to begin this Autumn.
The organisation is supported in Nottingham by Nelsons
Solicitors, insurance and risk brokers Arthur J Gallagher and audit, tax and consulting
services provider RSM, who will also be sponsoring the Lincoln event.
Terry added: “We very much hope that the construction
community in Lincolnshire, South Yorkshire and surrounding areas will support
our expansion by joining us on 15th September and also by
considering sponsorship of any future events. If it is to become a regularly
held and successful networking event then we need some leading organisations to
step forward, get involved and support us.”
September’s
event will include a presentation by group managing director of The Preparation
Group, Tracey Glew, on setting the industry standards, and takes place between 10am
to noon at The Training Hub, Preparation House, Deacon Road, Lincoln LN2 4JB. It
costs £30 per head and includes Danish pastries and coffee.
